I would look for Micro 4/3rds. Like the Panasonic GF3 or something similar. You can get a used body for pretty inexpensive and there’s a good amount of affordable used lenses available.
As a beginner, worry less about gear or megapixels and buy books that feature the style you want to do.
Honestly, just look for a good deal. Don’t worry too much about technical specs. Better to save a little and just find photographers that match what you’re trying to do and work backwards.
Photography, pretty much – street/portrait is the intention. No specific budget in mind, happy to spend a bit more if I know it'll last me a good few years. Ideally something that comes with a good variety of lenses available in the market.
Honestly lots of good options with lens floating in the market
I would say go for a Sony Alpha 7 (whichever is last years mid range model) - they've been a great mic of photos + videos I feel.
In few years you could upgrade to newer body, but keep the lens.
(Even canon is doing some great stuff)
Thanks! The Sony Alpha 7 keeps coming up as a good option, but you’re right, I should just go to a store and see what feels good to me. Appreciate the advice!
It's a really comfortable piece to work with, and honestly easy to rent its lens to in most cities (so you can try the lens before investing in those as well)
